cem sends off singapore-bound delegation

Companhia de Electricidade de Macau (CEM) recently sent a 30-member delegation to Singapore to exchange views on power generation, power supply and energy-efficient buildings with Singaporean energy company, Power Automation Pte Ltd.
CEM says that the purpose behind the visit was to use the similar experiences of Macau and Singapore – in that both have seen rapid urban development in a short period of time – to understand how they can both ensure the stability of their cities’ power supply.
The company’s statement said that members of CEM’s Customer Liaison Committee were very interested in issues such as power grid and energy conservation, and they benefited a lot from the exchange activities.
The delegation also visited the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore to understand the university’s efforts in energy conservation and emission reduction.
